Greg + Melissa

Second Beach Engagement Session

Newport, Rhode Island

Love, like the ocean, can be unpredictable, wild, and incredibly beautiful. Greg and Melissa experienced the magic of both during their engagement session at the stunning Second Beach in Newport, Rhode Island. In a tale that perfectly mirrors the ebb and flow of the sea, their day unfolded with laughter, connection, and an unexpected splash of excitement.

Second Beach, with its golden sands and the rhythmic symphony of the crashing waves, set the stage for an engagement session filled with love and spontaneity. The weather was perfect, the sun casting a warm glow over the couple as they explored the shoreline hand in hand.

Greg and Melissa's love story is a testament to embracing the unexpected. As the couple ventured along the water's edge, sharing laughter and tender moments, the natural chemistry between them became the focal point of the day. Little did they know that the sea had a surprise in store for them.

The engagement session was a mix of carefully curated poses and unscripted moments that beautifully captured the essence of Greg and Melissa's connection. Against the backdrop of the vast Atlantic Ocean, each photograph conveyed the warmth and authenticity of their love. And then, in a twist that added an extra layer of excitement, a massive wave crashed against the shore, leaving the couple momentarily drenched but undeniably exhilarated.

As the couple posed for a picture-perfect moment, a powerful wave surged unexpectedly, enveloping Greg and Melissa in a cascade of seawater. The spontaneous laughter and joy that followed turned an ordinary photo session into an unforgettable adventure, creating a memory that would forever be etched in the couple's hearts.

Beyond the unexpected splash, Second Beach offered a sense of tranquility and peace that became an integral part of Greg and Melissa's engagement story. The salty breeze, the feel of the sand beneath their feet, and the laughter echoing along the shore all contributed to an atmosphere of genuine connection and love.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm glow over the beach, Greg and Melissa's engagement session reached its poetic conclusion. Despite the unexpected drenching, they left Second Beach with hearts full of love and a collection of photographs that not only captured their love story but also the spontaneous, adventurous spirit that defines their relationship.

Kevin and Jordan’s Block Island destination wedding was a beachy, boho masterpiece! This was an emotional, meaningful weekend for Jordan’s family, as they have vacationed on Block Island for generations prior. Our wedding photography and videography team had the best time getting to know the bride and groom over the long weekend they spent together. Creativity ran wild as we explored all the island had to offer through drone coverage and renting some mopeds prior to the day of the wedding!

I can’t help but smile and tear up as I write this review for Move Mountains. We partnered with them for our wedding in September on Block Island, Rhode Island and we could not have worked with a more perfect team to capture our special wedding weekend. From our initial conversations a year before through the final logistics of the big day, it felt like we were working with a group of our best friends. It was easy, natural and amazing. We had the awesome opportunity to work with 5 amazing MM team members. They were so incredibly helpful when organizing the weekend with us. I haven’t even gotten to the final product - our pictures and videos! We received our AMAZING pictures so quickly and I was at a loss for words when looking through them. All the emotions came flooding back and I couldn’t believe how beautiful they were. We’re so excited to receive our videos soon and I know they will be absolutely breathtaking. Thank you MM for being so incredibly wonderful during the best weekend of our lives! We love you guys!

Kevin + Danielle

Castle Island

Boston, MA

Kevin and Danielle took full advantage of their winter engagement session to explore all that Castle Island had to offer. This diverse Boston photo session location had parks, long walkways, and beaches for the happy couple to enjoy with their wedding photographer. The snow on the ground and overcasted skies made for a perfect winter landscape. As for the New England couple, this bride and groom was down to earth, relaxed, and a joy to hang out with! We can’t wait to see them again at their Crowne Plaza Wedding in Warwick, Rhode Island this coming Fall!

The photographers at Move Mountains Co are amazing. They make you feel so comfortable, and do a great job of blending into the background while also capturing all the moments you want. They were also extremely flexible and I really appreciated the attention to detail. I would highly recommend them to anyone!

Aaron + Heather

Salve Regina + Forty Steps

Newport, Rhode Island

Engagement session season picks up right as summer wedding season slows down! Aaron and Heather got to meet up with their wedding photographer right before the winter chill rolled in. This happy couple’s adventure began when they met at Salve Regina in Newport, Rhode Island, so it was such an honor to head back to where it all began for their two-hour engagement session. Our top rated wedding photographers loved getting to know the bride and groom while hearing stories and visiting the spots where they first fell in love. Their engagement shoot was the perfect warm up for their wedding photography and videography this upcoming Fall at Gurney’s in Newport. If you’re recently engaged and looking for a wedding photographer or wedding videographer, we’d love to connect!

My fiancé and I had our engagement photos taken this past fall by Move Mountains Co. and we couldn’t be happier with how they came out! They were amazing to work with and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We were blown away by their attention to detail. Our photographer brought us back to our first location after noticing the lighting from the sunset, which turned out to be some of our favorite pictures. We are so excited to work with the entire Move Mountains Co. team for our wedding next fall!

Tim + Katie

Aqua Blue

Narragansett, RI

Tim and Katie brought the energy to Narragansett, Rhode Island with their bright eyes and huge smiles. This adventurous couple tied the knot at the elegant St. Mary’s Star of the Sea Church, but our wedding team’s favorite moment of the day easily was climbing the rocky terrain for their photo session at the Black Point Trailhead walking path. Their bridal party was larger than life and their love story was a pleasure for our wedding photography and wedding videography team to retell. Tim and Katie booked the "Deluxe Too" wedding package, which includes two photographers and two videographers. We'll never forget the enthusiastic crowd, the high energy couple, and killer venue that made this wedding what it was!

Jay + Kalyn

Beavertail State Park

Jamestown, RI

Winter’s wind and chilly temperatures couldn’t stop Jay and Kalyn’s waterfront engagement session at Beavertail State Park in Jamestown, Rhode Island! This couple flew in all the way from Michigan to visit family and to get to know their wedding photographer well before their wedding day! This New England couple pushed through the windy weather and their engagement photos came out effortlessly! We loved getting to hear more about their love story, and they were super fun to photograph!

Sean and the rest of the team of Move Mountains Co. were absolutely wonderful to work with! My husband and I are not the most comfortable in front of the camera, but their easy going and relaxed attitudes made us feel so much better. They are warm and accommodating by nature, so they took all the pressure off and blended in seamlessly, and didn’t in any way make us feel so on the spot. They listened to us and gave us all the space we needed, but somehow captured every moment so beautifully.

Beavertail State Park in Jamestown, Rhode Island just might be our most highly sought after engagement session location! Our wedding photographers love this spot for its hilly terrain, dynamic landscape, and proximity to the ocean! Our wedding couples can’t get enough of this naturally beautiful place for their engagement photos, no matter what season! Most recently, we hit our favorite spot with Frank and Robyn to photograph their dreamy, romantic engagement session. The cool autumn breeze and setting sun made for some beautifully warm-toned photos for these two to enjoy! There are plenty of photo session locations in Rhode Island to explore, and we’d love to book your engagement session and check them out together!

Move Mountains Co. delivers every time. I have had the opportunity of working with them on several occasions (Baby announcements, maternity shoots, and newborn photos) and was blown away each time. The photos are natural, clean, candid and just breathtaking! I love that I have these special moments to look back on!!
